Sophie's holiday sing

On the last morning of Sophie's school, everyone in the school got together for the traditional holiday sing and potluck. Jingle Bells, etc was sung but one of the chorus lines was changed to sing " we havent seen an icicle since 1921 coz we live in LA". Or something like that!
